Good morning Wanda....Thanks for the tour of the quilt entries, which I really enjoyed. We had errands to run yesterday and didn't get home till about 2:30. Fortunately we were inside Meijers when the deluge began and were able to load the groceries when it slowed down some. I felt sorry for the people who have outside booths at the fair and today looks like a mixed bag as well. The cool weather doesn't bother me, but the rain will put a damper of the fair festivities. It's such a good fair and we went almost every year for about 10 years, but haven't been in awhile now. Enjoy the weekend.

I haven't been to the fair in years - like about 15 I think. That is the last time I entered anything and they did not display the quilts well, they were hung in a building that had no air conditioning and it gets very hot in Arkansas and sometimes September is very hot so they would have a huge fan at the end of the barn like structure in an open doorway turned on blasting away and of course all the dirt was blowing right at the quilts. I was not a fan of that nor of how they didn't display the quilts well and of the thought that I had heard a quilt got stolen one year so I never entered again even though I won best of show that year - in this little county there is little prize money awarded (under $10 for Best of Show) so it was not worth it to me. I guess after that I just never went to see - I should go and see if it has changed.

I love a quilt display at a fair! Thanks for these photos. And congrats on your ribbons. I see one with a red ribbon done in redwork- I used that embroidery pattern and made that design, too. Took a long time, but love the quilt. All so beautiful.

Hi Wanda,These are great. Thanks. I really like the wallhanging by Sarah, the one with large leaves. Do you know if this is an original design or from a pattern? You have my email, but just in case: epm dot mail dot 444 dot @gmail.com
